From Trash to Treasure: The Sinclair Family's Beloved Genius novel Chapter 274

Chapter 274: Chapter 274: Zenthia’s Power

Handing the floor over to Chloe Sinclair for the rest of the conference was the most fitting choice.

However, this move took many of the leading experts in the audience by surprise.

It wasn’t that they hadn’t heard of Chloe Sinclair.

In fact, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say her name was legendary.

But with everyone conducting their research all over the country, they had never seen her in person, even if they knew just how exceptional she was.

Besides, the young woman on stage, speaking with such eloquence, was only nineteen years old!

’Could Joel Quincy have misspoken?’

But after Joel Quincy and Nathan Trenton left the stage, they were chatting and laughing, seemingly unconcerned about the decision.

Fortunately, those present had seen their fair share of strange situations. While they were shocked, they were more curious than anything else.

The audience watching the livestream, however, was a different story.

[Holy crap, no way. Professor Quincy just left the stage? Isn’t he the keynote speaker?]

[So the star of the show this time isn’t Professor Quincy or Nathan Trenton, but Chloe Sinclair?]

Many netizens were baffled, not quite understanding why everyone was so surprised.

But soon, a netizen by the handle "ILoveScience" replied.

[There’s no official rule for this kind of thing, but at a press conference, the keynote speaker is always the core figure of the entire experiment. Professor Quincy was the one who initiated the controllable nuclear fusion research, yet he just stepped aside. I’m positive Chloe Sinclair must have done something monumental for the research team.]

Everyone knew that Joel Quincy was a fair man.

He would never have given the keynote speaker position to Chloe Sinclair so easily.

It took the netizens a while to understand the implications.

If the livestream chat allowed voice messages, the feed would probably be flooded with a chorus of "HOLY SHIT!"

Even through a mere photograph, the audience could feel the sheer imposing presence of the massive device.

"The flow fusion reactor weighs over one hundred tons. It was jointly constructed in fifteen days by the members of the controllable nuclear fusion research team and our supervising leaders."

The moment Chloe Sinclair finished speaking, a wave of gasps swept through the audience.

Building something that weighed a hundred tons in half a month wasn’t necessarily difficult.

However, the hundred-ton object Chloe Sinclair was talking about was a device that required meticulous, painstaking assembly.

"These are the initial blueprints."

Seeing their reaction, Chloe Sinclair’s lips curled into a faint smile. She picked up a rolled-up blueprint from the desk, a scroll that stood half as tall as she was.

The sheet was densely covered in markings. While enough to give one a headache, it also piqued the interest of many in the crowd.

A few of the leading experts seated closest to the stage pushed up their glasses. After scrutinizing the blueprint for a long moment, their faces filled with astonishment.
